If you are gonna use the cable car for 2+ days, buy a 3 or 7 day pass at the gift shop (comission free) the single ride costs $6 (so $12 round trip) and 7 day pass costs $28 & it includes buses too
There are lots of consignment stores with cool stuff, in the area, Whole Foods a block away and some decent restaurants in walking distance. Hotel staff is friendly
Ashley StrangeFebruary 17, 2015Bar staff is great. Front desk is helpful. Pay to upgrade for a better view of the city. Lower rates and nearby everything.
BlairMarch 29, 2013So far so good. Great view from the room. Want a healthy bite to eat. Head up California about 100 meters to Whole Foods. Fresh food an healthy- Justin SullivanJanuary 12, 2015The rebranded ROH restaurant is comfortable and brightly lit. Lots of televisions. The little coffee shop does 1/2 off pastries after 8.
Jason McDowellDecember 18, 2010You COULD use the wireless here. Or you could go find a few goats, harness them up to a merry-go-round, & have them power a router of your own. Either way, it would be faster & more reliable than AT&T
Nicholas GeorgeMarch 10, 2016Call Holiday Inn SAN FRANCISCO-GOLDEN GATEWAY to reserve a room today! We offer business and family-friendly hotel accommodations at affordable prices.
Thin walls....had youngsters playing loud music and a joining room where I hear bathroom activities. Restless!
Marlon EAugust 3, 2018Their conference wi-fi is sufficient and bathrooms are clean. Short walk from the nearest Muni bus station.
Had a really good stay here. Helpful staff and nice rooms. For an impressive view, head to the left hand stairwell on the 26th floor! Not recommended for those that don't like heights though...
For a Holiday Inn, it’s a fancy one. Gym, pool, and laundry on the sixth floor.
Steve YountJune 15, 2013Good parking two blocks north on Sacramento street. $25 for 24 hours, SUVs included. Rt on California, L on Polk, L on Sacramento, on right.- Mackenzie PriceJuly 15, 2010Hotel is in a good spot. Close to transport. Cable car runs down California St and Buses go along Van Ness Ave. Wi-Fi cuts out a lot, though a nice hotel for a short stay.
The location is great, it's next to California St. The staff are friendly and polite.- Deanna O'HannaAugust 14, 2011Very nice stay so far. Got upgraded to room 25 with an amazing view! The bar is fun too.
Great rooms awesome views , friendly staff , great location to all attractions !!!
Erin Newington, RealtorMarch 3, 2012Head south on Van Ness and there is a Starbucks and Pete's coffee are on opposite sides of the street in a couple blocks.
- Alex WarnekeJanuary 11, 2012The wireless is godawful, but it is free. Don't plan on streaming movies. Also, my HD channels didn't work. Otherwise good service. Good burgers in the bar.
Brandon CainFebruary 23, 2016Location is good for going to the Fishersman's wharf without the wharfs price tag. Parking is 40 dollars though
Linh HuynhJune 2, 2012Has little exercise room in lower level. Has some weights and a few cardio machines.
Joshua GerberMarch 11, 2012Nice hotel. BART is right next tp hotel so you can go anywhere without a rental car.
Exceptional for what you would expect from a Holiday Inn.
Don't put your room keycard in the same pocket as your cellphone - it'll interfere with the card's magnetic strip and it'll stop working.
Luka DolencOctober 29, 2015Had a congress there and overall room was OK, but one of the projectors had unacceptably altered colors.
squeaselOctober 8, 2014Decent place to park for a show at the Regency if street parking is just not going to happen.
Kelly and Lavean are the best! Trust the mayor, I know what's up.
If your outside around midnight be prepared to see pimps and prostitutes fighting.
Dominick CobbOctober 28, 2011No microwaves?! They have a fridge but no microwave in the entire building... Give me a break. Spend $20 and get one from target people it's not that difficult!
Overall experience wasn't bad. The only bad thing was the $38/day for hotel parking. :(
